Colonial bloods, 600mg test Cyp

I had quest give me a reading of 200ng/dl on 150mg of doctor prescribed TRT. This was over a year ago when I was first contemplating switching to UGL test to save money so I wanted to have a baseline comparison. After seeing that I got tested by my doctor (it actually costs me more money to get tested by a doctor which makes 0 sense. healthcare is a scam). I tested at 800ng/dl through my doctor.

I have not messed with quest since. It's weird because I had gotten tested through quest like 3 times before that and the results were fine. So I think quest does screw up, maybe not everytime. I would recommend getting retested especially if he's covering it. Disclaimer, I'm on colonial's stuff now and had good bloodwork results.
 
That is odd.. I assume they are opened vials with the odor? Is.it mct or gso? My memory says colonial offers both..

They were all sealed until the previous vial was tapped dry. The first vial i didn't notice any odor. The second and now the third have it. They're also in MCT.

i thought maybe the oil is going bad, but wouldn't that cause post inject issues? The gear has been fine and i'm not looking to have it replaced, i'm just genuinely curious since this is the first time i've ever encountered this.
 
Fair enough. i don't trust that fucker, but no, seriously, the last two vials had a funky odor. i'm pleased with the results and there's been no issues. i'm genuinely curious why it smells that way. It's batch C122 if that makes any difference.

i thought maybe it was my storage. It's literally in a box in a dresser drawer, but your gear is the only one that gives off an odor.
What's the carrier oil? There shouldn't be any out of the ordinary smell besides the carrier oil itself (unless stored in a place which smells).

Edit: Saw response above. I wish I could pinpoint the smell and tell you. There shouldn't be any issues though. Oil is palm derived MCT.
 
I’ve been in contact with colonial, he’s been stand up with everything so I don’t want to go bad mouthing him now. I am sending a sample or two off to be tested and will post results here and to him personally when I get them back.

I was thinking old oil as well which is rare because these sources have a some what quick turnover.. and mct has a longer shelf life then gso.. it's testosterone I assume?

MCT and no, it's a dresser drawer that has a woody scent. That still wouldn't explain how the smell of the oil changed.

i just sampled someone else's gear in MCT from the same box in the same drawer and there was no smell.

Yes. Test Cyp. i bought it in Dec of last year if memory serves me correctly.

If you'd like a replacement for the smell, shoot me an email. I honestly can't tell you what the smell is because I've never had anyone mention that (except for certain products like injectable orals which contain supersolvents).

i'm good. Been using it for quite awhile now and have had no issues besides the odor which must not be anything serious. Thank you for the offer though.

Let me correct this before someone pulls some rain man shit with the numbers and call's MSG a liar.

i just looked, i'm mostly through the 4th vial. So it was actually the 3rd and now the 4th vial that had an odor.

I have always had amazing results with colonial so I'm really curious to see how the test results come out... @LA_1988 do you have any ETA on this?

Yea that’s what has me thrown off a bit. I haven’t been in the gym in three years and here I am back to almost where I was went I quit(as far as strength is concerned, I’m still a fat fuck).

Well big props to you for getting back on top of it bro!

I haven't been able to actually lift for about 3 months now due to horrible tennis elbow. Finally went to the doc and am taking prednisone and ibuprofen for it for a week. Hopefully that kicks it down and I can get back to normal. I have lost ~12 lbs over the last 3 months of not lifting and not eating properly (have had appetite issues due to stress and life shit). It's not terrible as I think I have gotten leaner so once I am able to get on a bulk cycle I think I'll be able to get pretty huge again pretty fast.

You may want to consider a coach, at least for nutrition. I am guessing you could figure it out on your own too given your experience, but it can really help to have someone that keeps you accountable.

Man I would love to have a coach but honestly for me now with a family, I’ve come to the realization that I just want to be in decent shape and still be able to go eat a slice or a burger with the family and not feel any guilt about it. I’m down 26 pounds since July, I know that’s not record breaking but I’m happy with the progress and I hope to keep this pace up. Mainly I wanna look good for my wedding next September, that’s why im not rushing.

I took 6 weeks off taking bpc157 tb500 and 3 iu growth and I'm back now and is still there a little but nothing like it was. I stopped the peptides when the elbows felt good then it came back so I would suggest not stopping and staying on it for at least a month.
 
Someone explain how do they mess up your bloods? As far as I know only fingerprick tests can give unpredictable results. Human error? They put your sample in a machine which does the rest... Looks like bad gear to me.

Hopefully we will find out soon. I’ve email jano, waiting for a response.
